Talib Kweli slams Iggy Azalea over Macklemore 'diss'

Macklemore name checked Iggy Azalea in his latest song with Ryan Lewis, “White Privilege II” — the follow-up to 2005’s “White Privilege” — by implying that she’s “exploited and stolen the music, the moment, the magic, the passion, the fashion.”

Azalea briefly addressed the “White Privilege II” reference in a tweet when a fan asked if she had heard the track. “He should have spent the last 3 yrs having friendly convos and taking pictures together at events etc if those were his feelings,” she replied.

Kweli also commented on Azalea’s response to the song, writing, “The fact [Azalea] thinks Macklemore song was a diss to her, instead of actually listening, is proof of her privilege,” he said. “F— Iggy Azalea.”

The fact @iggyazalea thinks Macklemore song was a diss to her, instead of actually listening, is proof of her privilege. Fuck Iggy Azalea.
